Is is possible to peel the top layer or rough bark away from all juniper species to reveal the dark red wood or only select species? I have a squamata that I would like to use this technique on if it is possible

You can definitely brush away the top layer of bark and get that smooth deep red on a squamata. Just don't brush too hard....
